COMPOSITION FOR REMOVING FINISH.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Jan. '19, 1909.

Application filed September 18, 1907. Berial No. 393,538.

nish ren'iovers comprising organic finish solvents and resin soaps, and relates particularly to such solvents as turpentine and wood turpentine, benzol and the like, thickened by aluminum resinate and carrying a.

modicum of an alcoholic body.

Aluminum resinate is usually prepared by precipitating a resin soap, such as may be prepared from various 'resins, particularly common resin, with n;solution of alum. It

the property when dissolved in tur entinc or similar solvents of giving a tick buttery consistency to the solvent, Dissolved in a proportion of one half to one pound of iesinate per gallon of tur entine a thickened liquid 15 roduced, whic has a desirable consistency or application to paint and varnish surfaces, While tur entine in itself has very slight action on nisli surface, yet when the turpentine is mixed with 80 a modicum of acetone or wood alcohol, or

other similar loosening finish solvents, it acquires considerable paint removing power, and in the present composition carrying as itdoes a resinous soap of aluminum which suitable consistency, the composition may be applied to vertical surfaces, or to cei ings by means of a brush with great ease. A suitable composition may be prepared by thickening turpentine in the manner dcfl), scribed to a consistency desired, and adding to the turpentine cent. of acetone.

Various other thickeners or fillers may he used in conjunction with that described, likea mixture of about 10 per nvisc various finish solvents as will be apparent to those skilled in the'art.

This invention relates especially to the use of composite solvents thickened with a resin-ate soap preferabl aluminum resinate as prepared from colop iony.

This invention has been'described in connection with a numberof illustrative 1ngredients, formulas, proportions and proccsses, to the details-of wh'ic h disclosure the invention is not, of course, to be limited. What is claimed is 1. The finish remover comprising approximately one gallon of turpentine with which one-half to one pound of aluminum resinate has been incorporated combined with about ten per cent. 0 acetone.

2. Thefinish remover comprising turpentine with which a metallic resinate has been incorporated and acetone added thereto.

3. The finish remover comprising aluminum resinate, a solvent therefor, and acetone.

.4. The finish remover comprising alumi num resinate, turpentine and acetone.-

5. The finish remover comprising aluminum resinate, a terpene solvent therefor, and acetone.

6. The finish remover comprising aluminum resinate, a terpene solvent therefor, and loosenin .finish solvent material miscible therewith.

7. The finish remover comprising a resinate of an aluminum roup metal, a terpene solvent therefor and oosening finish solvent material miscible therewith.

S. The finish remover consisting largely of a terpene solvent, loosening finish solvent material miscible therewith and a small pro portion of a resinate 0!. an aluminum group metal dissolved in said solvent material and thickening said remover.

9. The finish remover com risin a metallic resinate, a solvent there or an a modicum, of ketouic finish solvent material miscible therewith.

10. The finish remover comprisin a metal- 110 resinate, a terpene solvent there or, a d a modicum of a ketone finish solvent. miscible therewith.

11. The finish remover comprising aluminum rosinatc, a solvent therefor and a ketone.
